Chapter 167


Chapter 167 . Are you looking for this?



The reason that Lee Gong-Myung was afraid wasn’t simply because of the terrifying aura that Kang Chul-In was emitting . It was also because he had noticed that there was a small girl in Kang Chul-In’s arms,


A girl? D-Don’t tell me…! Overlord Kang Chul-In broke through Baruk Al-Yusuf’s army just to save… a girl? With his life on the line?


Lee Gong-Myung started to think quickly .


I-I’m sure that’s someone in his family . It might be his daughter or his little sister . If not, there’s no way that he would risk his life just for a simple girl .


Lee Gong-Myung’s guess was correct .


“Is that… your daughter?”


Lee Gong-Myung asked cautiously .


“Does it look like that?”


“Yes, it does . ”


“That’s right . She’s my daughter . ”


Kang Chul-In agreed readily .


“She was kidnapped by Sheville Polansky, the lord of the Bittermoon territory . ”


“So…”


“What father would just stand by if their daughter was kidnapped? Did you not watch Taken?


Kang Chul-In asked .


Both Liam Neeson and Kang Chul-In had jumped into enemy territory willingly in order to save their respective daughters .


“Haha . ”


Lee Gong-Myung laughed, nearly speechless .


“Taken… I guess so . The scale seems a little big, though . ”


“Is that so?”


“How many have you killed so far?”


“Maybe a thousand? I don’t really count when I kill people . ”


Kang Chul-In answered, unshaken .


“Amazing… I didn’t know you were someone like this . ”


From Kang Chul-In’s responses, Lee Gong-Myung could tell what kind of person Kang Chul-In was .


Ambition and bold . That was Kang Chul-In . He was a person that would be willing to do anything in order to reach their goal .


This kind of person couldn’t be predicted once they set their minds to something, as they would be willing to do anything .


“Well… I think this is enough probing, so shall we have a chat face to face now?”


Laughing, Kang Chul-In started to move towards the edge of the cliff .


This man… is trying to kill me!


Lee Gong-Myung could feel cold sweat pouring down his back, his heartbeat starting to increase, and his legs start to shake . Even though his mind remained cool, his body didn’t follow his will .


Not… negotiable .



Lee Gong-Myung completely erased the notion of trying to negotiate with Kang Chul-In .


Lee Gong-Myung… you die here .


Kang Chul-In’s thoughts were that different .


To him, Lee Gong-Myung was a great enemy that couldn’t be kept alive .


Unlike the useless lord that was Rothschild that only knew how to rely on his money, Lee Gong-Myung was extremely smart . After all, the reason that Alex Rothschild was able to push Kang Chul-In to his doom was because he had Lee Gong-Myung by his side .


Lee Gong-Myung was a big obstacle in Kang Chul-In’s path to becoming the emperor of Pangaea . Even bigger than Alex Rothschild .


“I’ll be back . ”


After saying that to the Altaica and the sleeping Arsh.e.l.ly…


Tuk!


Kang Chul-In jumped towards the other cliff, where Lee Gong-Myung was .


“ . . . !”


Looking at this, Lee Gong-Myung’s eyes were filled with even more shock and fear .


The distance that separated the two cliffs was ma.s.sive .


The originally short and narrow canyon had become wider because of Lee Gong-Myung’s traps, and now they had at least 150 metres splitting them apart .


He couldn’t believe it .


Even though he was an Overlord, he was trying to jump 150 metres with a standing long jump .


It wasn’t like he had some flight abilities, or like he was the Hulk from Marvel .


He was closing the distance extremely quick, as he streaked across the sky like a rocket .


Looking at this, Lee Gong-Myung clenched onto his White Rain Fan harder .


The only thing that could save him from this situation was the White Rain Fan .


The White Rain Fan had the powers of ‘calling the rain and wind’, as well as ‘moving the mountains and rivers’ .


I can do it!


Lee Gong-Myung put all of his remaining mana into the White Rain Fan .


Kang Chul-In was currently midair, and it was practically impossible for him to dodge in that state . This was Lee Gong-Myung"s chance .


The moment when Kang Chul-In’s feet weren’t on the ground!


Kuooo!


A white breeze started to swirl around Lee Gong-Myung’s fan .


And,


Whik!


Lee Gong-Myung swung his fan in the direction of Kang Chul-In . Using the power of the wind, he was trying to push Kang Chul-In down .


Whiiii!


The fierce winds traveled to where Kang Chul-In was, and tried to pull him down .


Pft-


But unexpectedly, Kang Chul-In laughed .


Wind?


Call whatever winds you want .


Kang Chul-In had the authority ‘Vortex’, which was able to completely overpower the winds that the White Rain Fan could bring .


“Take this . ”


Saying this, Kang Chul-In’s right hand glowed with a blue light, and the vortex met with Lee Gong-Myung’s winds .


And the result,


Kuaa-!


Was an overwhelming victory for Kang Chul-In and the vortex .


After negating Lee Gong-Myung’s attack, the vortex started to fly towards Lee Gong-Myung .


“ . . . !”


Looking the ma.s.sive vortex flying towards him, Lee Gong-Myung nearly let go of the fan in his hands .


To think that Kang Chul-In would be able to counter this attack… it wouldn’t be an overstatement to say he had no future left .


I need to run…


Lee Gong-Myung threw his body with the remaining strength he had .


BANG-!!


And the vortex swallowed the area that Lee Gong-Myung had been in .


---------


After returning to the Bittermoon territory, Baruk Al-Yusuf called all of his troops, and hurriedly started to retreat towards his territory .


“Slow, too slow! Hurry up already!”


Since Baruk Al-Yusuf continued to command the soldiers, the soldiers didn’t even have time to rest .


“Uu…!”


“So… tired . ”


This was a bad and stupid use of one’s army .


If Baruk Al-Yusuf was smart, he wouldn’t have moved his army from here even if he had to sacrifice his territory .


It was idiotic to try and return to Anatolia quickly after conquering the Bittermoon territory just 3 hours prior .


And not only that, but it was nighttime .


They needed at least a day to rest after fighting the battle, so it was obvious that the soldiers would be extremely exhausted .


What would he be able to do even if he returned to Anatolia when his army was so exhausted?


Even if Baruk Al-Yusuf used his authority to empower his troops, they wouldn’t be able to fight unless they had stamina left .


“Quickly! I told you to move faster!”


But under pressure, Baruk Al-Yusuf didn’t have a cool mind .


Anatolia was a key piece in Baruk Al-Yusuf’s dream of building an Islam empire within Pangaea . It was a treasure that Baruk Al-Yusuf couldn’t give up no matter what .


“These slow b.a.s.t.a.r.ds…”


Unsatisfied with the marching speed, Baruk Al Yusuf shouted .


“Anyone that falls behind will be executed…”


Just when Baruk Al-Yusuf was shouting---


“Huh?”


“What’s that?!”


“Are they doing fireworks…”


Some soldiers looked up at the night sky, and questioned .


“What are you doing, in the middle of…”


Angrily, Baruk Al-Yusuf turned his gaze towards where the other soldiers were looking .


Something’s s.h.i.+ning?


There, he could see some s.h.i.+ning things falling . A lot of them, and extremely quickly!


“What the f.u.c.k…?”


At this unexpected situation, Baruk Al-Yusuf swore .


“Hmm?”


At that moment, one of the soldiers put their hands out in curiosity at what these s.h.i.+ning things were . Then,


BANG!


That soldier’s head blew up .


“ . . . !”


At this sudden explosion, everyone looked over .


Or to be precise, they tried to, but couldn’t .


Why?


Because that explosion was just the beginning .


Bang!


Bang!


Bang! Bang! Bang!


Everywhere, small explosions occurred .


Although the blast radius wasn’t that big, it was extremely effective .


Ddudduddudduu…


The sound of rumbling hooves shook the ground…


“Where are you running!?”


“You weak tras.h.!.+”


And around 1000 cavalrymen ambushed the Anatolia soldiers from the back . They were soldiers wearing black--- the cavalry of the Laputa army!


That wasn’t all .


Flap flap!


With large flapping noises---


-Kyooo!


-Kyakkk!


Wyverns started to pack up together and fly over the Anatolian soldiers . These were the reinforcements that Kwak-Jung had called .


And,


“I’m here!”


A man that was riding on the biggest wyvern roared .


“KANG CHUL-INNN!!”


The wyvern rider, Dorian Explorer, shouted Kang Chul-In’s name .


“I’m here! I’m here to repay my debts!!”


Dorian shouted to someone who wasn’t there .


“We go!”


Dorian jumped off the wyvern .


Bang!


Landing perfectly and rolling like an action star, Dorian stood up .


“Now, let"s…”


When Dorian was about to show off his confidence and begin the fight, he started to look around him, as if something were weird .


“Uh… Well, haha…”


Dorian laughed awkwardly .


“Who the h.e.l.l is this guy…?”


“What’s this b.a.s.t.a.r.d doing…?”


The soldiers of Anatolia all stared at Dorian, as if they were looking at an idiot .


“Hey, why only… why me! Hey! You traitors!”


Dorian shouted towards the sky, or more accurately, towards his allies .


No one had jumped off with him .


The only person that had descended was Dorian .


Which meant,


“I-I’m, I"m just going to go now, okay…? Haha…”


That Dorian had just jumped into enemy territory by himself, just like an idiot .
